Great Rear Camber Adjustment Solution!
After doing alot of research and not being totally comfortable with the install problems and adjustment limitations of the Kmac kit, an MB dealer suspension guru referred me to Jeff Short at www.speedybenz.com. He is located in California and manufactures heavy duty rear camber arms. They are easily installed in under 1 hour per side with normal hand tools, give a much wider range of positive or negative camber, and are simple to adjust.
The arms are priced less than the Kmac kit and i got them in under a week.

Nice option. I would have looked at this if I would have known about it. I will say though, you will never need more adjustment than what the KMC kit offers. On paper is on thing but when you see what a few degrees does, you will see what I mean.
great find and I like them, but drilling cost me nothing and ill get the arms if I wanna do additional adjustment. I had been asking about this for months and decided to make a change and see if that helped. It did on the track yesterday, though Ill need to see the toe measurments to see what they are. Thanks again

Ok guys, I looked over the product. So what are you trying to achive here? 0° camber ?
I noticed my car has some neg camber, more noticable when traveling with a heavy load. But when I replaced my rear tires, they were not worn uneven.
Is this for racing purposes? Curious.

There are 2 people making them..LENSOLO and SPEEDYBENZ. I ordered first from LENSOLO and after a bunch of promises, BS, and nearly 2 months of waiting I cancelled the order and ordered from SPEEDYBENZ.
Speedy shipped them next day and I installed them in my garage with hand tools and a floor jack. They are extremely well built and designed for long life even under severe race conditions.
All you do is jack the car, pull the rear tires, unbolt the O.E. fixed camber arms (2 bolts per side), replace with the adjustable camber arms, put the tirs back on, lower the car, and go get it aligned!
Side 1 took me about 1 hour, side 2 about 30 minutes.

Hey Ryan, call Jeff Short at 916-275-0290 or order direct on his website www.speedybenz.com . I ordered mine for a 1996 - 2006 SLK R170 Chassis with an attachment saying they were for my CF.
sick ride bro!
